Hi,
I was trying the connected system (Google Cloud Document OCR Connected System) and its services.
I am able to perform the OCR operation on the PDF and get the JSON file.
Now if I try to use the Format OCR Results service and retrieve the data out of the JSON to Appian it gives me only the result for my first page and not the other pages.
Have anyone faced the same issue?

Hello Abbas; You can get this information from console.cloud.google.com/.../serviceaccounts

1. Create/ select your service account that has access to Cloud Vision and Cloud Storage APIs enabled

2. Download the service account json file

3. Open the file, inside will contain the authorization information you are looking for
